There is something so sci-fi real about these mannequins. I keep expecting them to march off the edge of that platform and do.........what? Some days it's difficult for me to decide between the portrait work and the fashion images. I've recently completed another 30x42" face. Well, completed might be a bit ambitious. Today was a fresh look and I think it will need some tweeking. However, it's darn close to what I invisioned. We'll see what happens.

The "figure" sits back so quiet and yet the most important element in the framework. It was a challenge but fun to do.

This young man was one of three sitting on a street corner just being young. I will eventually paint the group. They were so oblivious to everything and everyone around them. The streets were busy with shoppers and the street fair but all they new was their little group.

I've been so impressed with the image of this woman since I first saw it. I'm thinking about doing a larger, full figure piece. She just seems to know something that no one else is privy to. She's just looking right inside of you.
